Cry louder, I can't hear you.

Chapter 16 Now you know fear?

[System! How am I supposed to win him over like this?! You were the one who told me to confess earlier, saying now was a good time. Do you really think this is the right time?]

System: [...That's all that was detected. I didn't know the villain was so unpredictable.]

Waaaaah... This pervert is really hard to deal with...

Yun Qiao really wanted to cry.

No matter what I say, I'm not satisfied. What does he want?!

Very well, you've forced her into this situation, haven't you?!

Yun Qiao gritted her teeth, and suddenly, with a loud bang, she knelt down before him.

Fight!

"Brother Suwei, I was forced into this. I had my reasons..."

She knelt down and moved to his feet, tugging at his trouser leg, and began to sob... without snot, but with tears streaming down her face.

"I don't actually like Cheng Xichi, nor do I like Chi Zhou, I only like you!"

"But I can't control my wicked heart. I'm jealous of Shen Shiyu, I can't stand to see her doing well, and I'm afraid you'll like her. So, sometimes my mind goes a little muddled, and I never thought I'd make you misunderstand my true feelings..."

System: 【…You're really something.】

As the saying goes, "A true man's knees are worth gold," but I am not a true man.

"...Get up."

Shen Suwei's gloomy voice came from above, as if he was suppressing something, each word spoken slowly and deliberately, sounding rather like he was gritting his teeth.

Yun Qiao trembled, not daring to look at him. She'd already knelt; she had to finish the charade.

"I won't get up! If you don't believe me, I won't get up!"

She clung tightly to his leg, as if afraid he would kick her out.

Shen Suwei's breathing became heavier.

He must have been furious.

"...Yun Qiao, do you really think I won't do anything to you?"

Yun Qiao's breath hitched. Was she going to be killed?

"stand up--"

"...You're so fierce."

"Are you sure you can't get up?"

Yun Qiao swallowed hard, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Suddenly he said leisurely:

"Do you know what it means when someone runs into a man's room in the middle of the night, disheveled, and kneels before him?"

What does it represent?

Before Yun Qiao could even think about the problem, the light above her head was suddenly blocked.

He leaned closer.

A sudden, intense scent of pine wood enveloped her, overwhelming her senses. Yun Qiao was startled and instinctively tried to back away, but a large hand suddenly gripped the back of her neck, holding her firmly in place.

He whispered two words into her ear.

Yun Qiao paused for two seconds before realizing what he had just said.

His face flushed red instantly, from his neck to the top of his head.

Noticing that his gaze was somewhat meaningful, Yun Qiao looked down in the direction of his gaze.

When she realized that her pajamas had slipped down to one side due to her movements, revealing a large expanse of white and a touch of red, her mind went completely blank.

"I……"

She shoved him away abruptly, scrambling back several steps, her back hitting the corner of the coffee table. She winced in pain, but didn't care.

She clutched her pajamas, one hand covering her chest, staring wide-eyed at Shen Suwei, "You..."

His lips opened and closed, then opened and closed again, but he couldn't utter a single word.

How can this person be so shameless? How can they say such things without batting an eye? And they even watch!

Shen Suwei maintained the bent-over posture.

He looked down at the girl who had run away like a startled rabbit, a sarcastic smile curving his lips.

"Now you know fear?"

Yun Qiao pursed her lips, somewhat indignant.

Was he trying to scare her on purpose?

Otherwise, why would he say such a thing?

This is a novel set in the city, featuring pure love, romance, a long-awaited reunion, a broken relationship mended, and bittersweet moments...

No matter which label you use, it's completely out of sync with what he just said...

No wonder he died young!

If this villain lives any longer, this novel will have to be republished on a different website.

"go out."

He chased people away again.

This time, Yun Qiao didn't linger.

She silently got up, straightened her clothes, and turned to walk towards the door.

Shen Suwei just said he would give her one minute, but she has already spent almost half an hour.

Now that the clothes are dry, everyone outside should be fast asleep.

She wasn't flustered at all when she went out.

It made her feel more at ease than staying in Shen Suwei's room.

mouth……

pay?

How could Shen Suwei use such vocabulary so casually?

His study bookshelves are full of serious literature, how would he know about this?

Could it be that he's actually a wolf in sheep's clothing, and plays many dirty tricks in private?

Yun Qiao walked down the corridor, covering her burning face, trying to calm herself down.

Suddenly, Aunt Lin's voice came from the front:

"Miss Yun?"

Yun Qiao froze, stiffly looking up.

"Why are you walking over from that direction in the middle of the night?"

Aunt Lin looked at her suspiciously, then at the direction of Shen Suwei's room behind her.

She frowned, as if remembering something, and was about to ask again when she suddenly saw Yun Qiao walk past her with her eyes closed.

"Miss Yun?"

Yun Qiao ignored her, closed her eyes and pretended to sleepwalk, walking unsteadily.

"Did you hear me?"

Seeing that she was about to hit the wall, Aunt Lin quickly pulled her back, her tone hesitant:

"Is he sleepwalking?"

Yun Qiao nodded frantically in her mind, "Yes, yes, it's sleepwalking, so don't ask anymore..."

Aunt Lin was skeptical, but seeing that Yun Qiao was still standing still, she was afraid that she was really sleepwalking and might accidentally bump into the wall and get hurt. So she didn't dare to be careless and could only help her walk towards her room.

"Go this way, there's a wall over there."

……

Yun Qiao finally breathed a heavy sigh of relief after closing the door.

What a bad night.

System: [Is there ever a day when the host isn't unlucky?]

[Shut up.]

The next day was Monday, the day Yun Qiao and Shen Shiyu went to the Shen Group headquarters to report for duty.

Yunqiao woke up late because she went to bed too late last night.

Shen Shiyu came to call her for breakfast so she could put on makeup, but she didn't go.

It's already past eight o'clock, and the reporting time is nine o'clock.

When Yun Qiao went downstairs, she could no longer find Shen Shiyu.

They must have run away first.

Without lingering, she changed her shoes and hurriedly ran out.

Just as I was about to leave the house to hail a taxi on the roadside, I looked up and saw Shen Suwei's car parked right in front of the house.

Yun Qiao paused.

It's so late, why hasn't Shen Suwei left yet?

"Aren't you getting in the car? What are you standing there for?"

Shen Suwei's voice came from behind her. Yun Qiao turned around and saw him walking past her without even looking at her.

Yun Qiao was surprised. On her first day of work, Shen Suwei even offered to pick her up and drop her off?

Such good treatment?

wrong.

It must be because of Shen Shiyu.

She quickly realized that she must have benefited from Shen Shiyu's influence.

After all, she was kicked out right after confessing her feelings last night, so Shen Suwei must dislike her intensely. How could he possibly offer to drive her around?

So, Shen Shiyu is in the car right now?

It's almost time to be late anyway, so it's better to be late with Shen Suwei than to be late alone.

Yun Qiao stopped hesitating, walked around to the other side of the car, opened the door, and got in.
